The Dark Lord

I'm half-tempted to find my old RCT disc and design a theme park based on Sodom from HnH. Either that or a concentration camp.

That's not as fun as killing them or throwing them into jail.

*cracks knuckles* I was a Rollercoaster Tycoon freak when I was a kid. Of course, I spent most of my time dumping people in water and laughing as they drowned, but STILL. I built theme parks with the maximum number of tiles possible and the maximum loan possible. I had to rig up my mouse and keyboard because the clicking hurt my wrists (took a while to get it to say $6 million or whatever for the loan). My park instantly went into debt every time, but it also generated a lot of people coming in. I had a lot of fun drowning people and making them vomit. I'd usually kill off all the depressed-looking people. Also, making islands and putting people inside 'prisons' was funny as well. Every person that tried to leave was automatically grabbed and tossed into the prison. Then, I would execute them. ^_^

You're a prodigy? Depends on how you define 'prodigy.' I was able to take Spanish I at a local community college when I was in 8th grade, and I had multiple opportunities to take college classes throughout my high school years. Interesting. How much are the classes going to cost you?

It's still possible, just not at the severe degree it was before. If you can't buy something at med, now you have the option to buy it over med, effectively going around any clan trying to hoard an item. This. I guess I made an error when I said that it was 'impossible,' but I can say that manipulation will never be as severe as it was when free trade was gone. It's much harder for people to hoard items with the GE limits being gone. Likewise, the manipulation that existed pre-GE was mainly the sort that r2plesent is known for. He used his reputation to make the manipulation of half-wines possible. It's much, much better to have a GE full of scammers than to have all these clans made up of greedy, untalented fa****s running around and unfairly hoarding items on the GE. At least you won't fall for scams if you're not a complete moron.

Owned.

Jagex could also try to make grinding more enjoyable so as to cut down on the level of botters. Of course, this will never eliminate botters, no matter how 'enjoyable' they make grind.

Oh God. MRWT? And we all thought RWT was bad.... Now we have to fear MRWT -- the big kahuna of RWTing. Hide your children.

I didn't notice it, so could you do a remix of Animal Apogee, please?

Why move the pillar? Doesn't it give the picture more space/depth? And I agree with the comments about your first picture. The blurred mass of metal also strains my eyes somewhat, making it displeasing to look at.

And like someone said earlier, with free trade, we have lurers and scammers, but we don't have manipulation clans. Without free trade, we have manipulation clans but don't have scammers and lurers. Scammers and lurers only affect one person at a time. Manipulation clans affect everyone at once and make it harder to purchase items due to GE constraints. Likewise, you'd have to be an idiot to fall for a scam/lure. If you get scammed/lured, I salute the scammers and the lurers and think you're just some moron who's also a quivering man[bleep] if you whine about it. Take your pick. Hmm

I'd still vote 'yes'. Everything's as I expected it to be. I knew that scammers would come in droves, that RWT would "return," and bots would increase. I am still willing to take all of these negative aspects as a consequence for having complete freedom as a player.

Throw him in the wild and see how that works for him.

The Stone of Jas icon is a bit fuzzy. Other than that, nice job.

If lurers drop stuff on the ground near the Wilderness barrier (some lurers do this) in order to lure you, jump the wall and DON'T move. Telegrab the loot and teleport. :v Alternatively you can have some buddies enter the Wilderness a couple screens east and west and then attack the lurers from behind. TB and then D claw/Korasi spec. And yeah. 2011 lurers are way dumber than the old-style ones. People fall for the [cabbage] though, which is hilarious. "Doubling my money" "Oh [cabbage]! *spams trade*" "Thanks!" "Scammer QQ"

Pretty [bleep]ing hilarious.

4.00 = A 3.00 = B 2.00 = C 1.00 = D 0.00 = F In some high schools, there is no D. You fail if you earn below a 69% (minimum percentage needed for a C). Texas has/had such a system, for example. Arkansas uses the D letter grade. AP courses (which are the equivalent of Britain's A-levels) are weighted. Thus, you can earn OVER a 4.00 cumulative GPA if you take many of these courses, up to a 5.00 GPA. AP grades are thus: 5.00 = A 4.00 = B 3.00 = C Et cetera. I believe that high schools generally take the GPA that you earn per semester to create the GPA that you earned for that particular school term. Then the GPAs are added together and divided by the number of years, giving you your cumulative GPA. Don't quote me on this, though.

That must be very stressful. Personally, I could easily make a 3.8 GPA while only taking an AP history class so long as I wasn't lazy and turned my assignments in. I ended up graduating with a 3.47 cumulative GPA (which was just below the 3.5 GPA required for honor grads) due to experiencing depression in the 10th grade (my GPA for that year was about 2.83...I think) and continuing to slack off in 11th grade and not turning many of my assignments in on time/at all (I made closer to a 3.0, though I can't remember the GPA). On top of that, I didn't take many AP classes as I should have. Now that I'm in college, I look back and realize that I could have gotten a much higher cumulative GPA and that I could have done very well in AP English courses, AP Bio, and AP Chemistry (although I'm not sure if I could have done AP Calculus because I have a math deficiency). The only reason I didn't take these classes wasn't because I thought they were too hard. I didn't take them because I was lazy and didn't want to apply myself and do the extra work. Don't do this to yourself. It'll screw you over, especially in uni, where GPA actually matters if you want to go into doctoral studies or be competitive if you want to become a Medical Doctor or go into other high-salary careers. If you want to raise your GPA, be sure to do every extra-credit assignment possible, STUDY, turn in all assignments on time, go to bed at reasonable times and eat a good breakfast in the morning (from experience, this has significantly affected my level of stress when taking exams), and take as many AP and honors courses as possible. Also, GPA doesn't necessarily reflect intelligence. It mainly reflects how well students apply themselves. For example, there wasn't too much of a difference between myself and the school valedictorian and salutatorian, despite the GPA gap. Why? Although the salutatorian (one of my friends) was a better mathematician (at least in my opinion), I know that he did all of the things that I mentioned earlier. He applied himself a lot more than I did. We were both really bright students. Don't let GPA differences make you feel inferior. Just do your best and eliminate any distractions that prevent you from your goal. If you really want an A, you'll get an A. Also, we took the first exam in my Zoology course, and I scored a 98% while most people scored significantly lower than I did (a B or C). You know how I accomplished that? I studied. Eleven pages of notes. I skimmed through my lecture notes every Tuesday and Thursday, and I typed all of my notes into MS Word and printed them off so that I could power study on the day before the exam. I feel proud of myself. :smile:

Bollywood and cricket is pish and [cabbage].

It's still a decent moneymaker for lower levels, though. Which I might add constitutes the majority of runners (at least pre-GE). A lot of people did it for money and didn't give a [cabbage] about RC.

WTF did I just watch.

Ever consider studying in another country? My state practically gives away undergrad scholarships as long as you have a B average (hell, I think one only requires a 2.5 GPA, which means that you practically have to be a complete dumb[cabbage] to not get one). Of course, the consequence is that a lot of trash students apply for the scholarships and end up taking more money, which they don't deserve. This gives me less money. :( It all works out though. I get $5000 a year for four years, which is enough to cover the cost of my classes and textbooks (as well as giving me a little extra money from what I don't spend, which I'm saving up for a trip to England in a couple summers.) Living with my parents also saves a lot as well.

I'm unbanned. :smile:

Have you ever met a person whose 'fursona' is an amoeba (or some other microscopic animal) or some sort of fish?

Well, I wouldn't be too surprised if Jagex did do something silly like that, though.
